To lubricate sprocket Tip
1. Unplug the chain saw from the power source.
note:
It is not necessary to remove the saw chain to lubricate the
guide bar sprocket tip. Lubrication can be done on the job.
2. Clean the guide bar sprocket tip.
3. Using a disposable Lube gun, insert needle nose into the
lubrication hole and inject grease until it appears at the
outside edge of the sprocket tip (Fig.15).
4. Make sure that the chain brake is deactivated. Rotate the saw
chain by hand. Repeat the lubrication procedure until the
entire sprocket tip has been greased.
To clean Guide Bar rails
1. Remove sprocket cover, bar and chain.
2. Using a screwdriver, putty knife, wire brush or other similar
instrument, clear residue from the rails on the guide bar. This
will keep the oil passages open to provide proper lubrication
to the bar and chain. (Fig. 16)
3. Reinstall the bar, chain (and adjust tension), sprocket cover
and bar bolt retaining nuts. (See Section Guide bar / saw
chain installation).
Guide bar maintenance
Most guide bar problems can be prevented merely by keeping
the chain saw well maintained. Incorrect filing and non-uniform
cutter and depth gauge settings cause most guide bar problems,
primarily resulting in uneven bar wear.
